At yesterdays, @CEIAinc conference, Dave Drewery & Katie Knapp discussed the importance of workplace friendships and their outcomes.

Key takeaway: Encouraging connections between students and employees increases job satisfaction and organizational commitment.

The last keynote of the day is Niigan Sinclair - who is speaking on indigenous presence, practice, pedagogy and permanence. He says “Reconciliation has to live more in the hallways than in the classrooms” 🧡

What can leaders do right now? @DrAnnLopez says “know what you have to learn, and know what you have to unlearn-and we have to let some things go” 🔥

A stacked panel to discuss the future of education (that’s our jam!) - @DRABC14 asks, what are the three skills we want students to walk away with? The answer: 1. Curiosity (you can’t teach this, help them spark it!) 2. Problem solving! 3. Building friendships (humanity ❤️)

“Becoming more human is the only answer to machines that will take over the education system. We have to become more human” @YongZhaoEd

[innovatED @EdInnovat]

Opening the @OPCouncil Summit on Public Education opens with @YongZhaoEd who tells us “education is never about the test scores” & reminds us that when you’re driven by the wrong education goals, you miss what education is about.
